Trust Me? and Love Me? The Trust Me? Trilogy

Trust Me? The Trust Me? Trilogy

This book is for mature audiences 18+ It contains explicit language and sexual content.

Jenifer Taylor is content with her life, dull and boring as it is. Being absent from the dating scene means she doesn’t have to deal with the major trust issues she has with men that stem from a controlling and aggressive ex-boyfriend and an absentee father. She’s happy being alone, sharing her life with her friends and family.

When Jeni starts a typical day in the big city of Mornington Vale, California, it turns from bad to worse when she’s involved in a chain collision on her way to work.

Her world changes forever that day because she meets Aiden O’Connell, the billionaire son of Alistair O’Connell, who owns Mornington Vale’s largest financial corporation. Aiden is an up-and-coming young businessman who's ready to take on the vice presidency of his father’s company. He is the good son, and it’s imperative to Alistair that Aiden succeed and follow in his footsteps. Life for Aiden involves working hard and not much else.

After the accident, however, Aiden’s world changes as well. He finds Jeni irresistible and instantly pursues her. With some coaxing, she eventually agrees to a date, and the attraction is mutual.

Jeni finds love quickly with Aiden, but trusting him is another issue. When to trust is tested in many different ways but comes to a head when Aiden is investigated for a serious crime. As her trust issues spark, she is forced to go through a journey of self-discovery.

She must decide once and for all whether she trusts the man she loves when she’s asked the ultimate question: “Do you trust me?”

Love Me? The Trust Me? Trilogy

This book is for mature audiences 18+ It contains explicit language and sexual content.

In the first book of The Trust Me? Trilogy, Jeni Taylor finds the love of her life, but as the second book begins, she finds herself lost without Aiden O’Connell, who’s been wrongly convicted of embezzlement charges and incarcerated. She must find the strength within to help prove he’s innocent while dealing with other issues. Aiden’s father, Alistair, still taunts her, making life between Jeni and Aiden more difficult, and an unexpected visitor enters their lives, creating havoc and turning it upside down. Jeni’s trust issues return in a major way after an incident leaves her fragile and broken. Aiden and Jeni find themselves going through more trials and tribulations than ever before in this second installment of the Trust Me? Trilogy. In the end, Jeni will be asked the ultimate question: Do you still love me?

First of all let me start off by praising Kimberly on
her fantastic writing skills. One of the best first time novels I have ever
read it flowed perfectly! Well Done, Flawless!

Now the book, great story line. Very original. You
read some of these novels where the rich man falls for the plain girl blah
blah. All very predictable. This one however has the ‘boy meets girl’ but has a
slight twist… He ends up in prison for embezzling money from his father’s
company… I bet you’re all thinking WTH! Well he didn’t do it he was set up!
Kimberly left it on a cliff-hanger… Yup we still don’t know if Aiden gets out
of prison

So I cannot wait for the second in the series.

The relationship between Aiden and Jeni is lovely. It
definitely is a ‘Love at first sight’. Even though things get serious and
intense very quickly, it still works. Kimberly hasn’t rushed the relationship
between them. You can feel the build-up of feelings between them, you get to
witness the development of the relationship. There’s not one fault I picked up
on.

All in all an amazingly well written novel. If you
haven’t read this yet, I urge you to go buy it! I promise you be hooked from
start to finish! It’s absolutely a MUST READ.

*I
chose to review both Trust Me? and Love Me together so I will try to be as
general as possible so as not to give spoilers and will share this review on
both.*

I
can NOT say enough good things about this series. While reading these 2 books,
I could be found doing one of the following: literally sitting on the edge of
my seat, laughing, all choked up at something romantic, or fanning myself over
some seriously steamy moments. Oh and don’t forget the times I was pissed at
one of the few characters that had me glaring at my tablet. In short, my emotions
were all over the place!

Aiden
and Jeni….*sighs* Seriously great couple. Don’t get me wrong, its not all
daisies and sunshine but that just makes for a better story and a stronger
relationship. Aiden is seriously sex walking. He’s a successful business man,
kind, sweet, loving, and likes to spoil Jeni….and did I mention sexy as hell?
Jeni has some serious baggage from her previous relationship but its obvious
that she’s trying to overcome that. Despite how she frustrates me from time to
time, I do like her. All of their friends and family are great (with the
exception of Alastair of course). All of the characters felt like real people
and I felt every single emotion right along with them.

So far this is
turning out to be one of my favorite series and I’ve already found myself
thinking about it throughout my day while doing other things. To me, that is
the sign of an Author that has done their job well. I am VERY eager to read the
final book All of Me? so I can get the conclusion to this seriously fantastic
(if not emotionally draining) series. Wonder stories and a solid 5 out of 5
stars on both stories from me! Thank you for sharing this with
me.
